[Verse 5]
Well, I set my monkey on the log
And ordered him to do the Dog
He wagged his tail and shook his head
And he went and did the Cat instead
He’s a weird monkey, very funky

[Verse 6]
I sat with my high-heeled sneakers on
Waiting to play tennis in the noonday sun
I had my white shorts rolled up past my waist
And my wig-hat was falling in my face
But they wouldn’t let me on the tennis court

[Verse 8]
Now I got a friend who spends his life
Stabbing my picture with a bowie knife
Dreams of strangling me with a scarf
When my name comes up he pretends to barfI’ve got a million friends!

[Verse 9]
Now they asked me to read a poem
At the sorority sisters home
I got knocked down and my head was swimming
I wound up with the Dean of Women
Yippee! I’m a poet, and I know it
Hope I don’t blow it
